There is an answer on the way

I posted those two songs to encourage myself (and possibly some of you). I have had a tough week. Oh, the pain...the pain. And most of it has been in an area where I have been attacked nonstop for months....hurt....confused.....humbled.....betrayed. I was in a really bad place yesterday. I kept asking God "Why?". And I haven't been doing that, I have been trusting Him. But when the hits keep coming, I gotta ask Him.
Where are you?! When will you help me? Why is this happening?
But this morning, I woke up singing songs about His provision, His love, His mercy. And the questions I have in my mind now are-God, what are You about to do? What is it that You have for me that is so good that You had me go through this HUGE trial? How are you going to show up in my life, and allow blessings to unfold that can only have come fromYou? How is Your glory going to be shown in my life this time?
I woke up feeling that He is about to do something so enormous for me that I am going to have trouble understanding it, just as I have trouble understanding what He is doing right now. He is going to do something that people will have to give Him glory for, because He is the ONLY one who could have done it. Thank you, Lord for giving me my faith back. I let it slip for a moment, but we're back now! :) I know You better than to think that You are just going to bring me out here and let me die. Thanks to those who listened to me and prayed with/for me yesterday. You're amazing and I love you. Here's a list of thankfuls since I have not been in a mindset to blog in the last few days. Have a great weekend!
